The School of Medicine is planning a new outlook on bod- j ies. The group will switch its j j concentration from dead bodies ■ to live ones, as they plan a big j | “Queen of Medicine” contest for I next week.
“Speaking medically," said contest chairman Warren Mac-lellan, “the contest will be ; j judged by a very just and cap-j able medical staff. Judging will | be based on the contestant's an- i | atomy, physiology and physical j j findings.”
The winner of this contest, j the first of its type in the his- j i tory of the Med School, will reign for a full year and “will j be awarded many gifts, great,
| honor and spectacular opportu- | i nities,” according to Maclellan. j
“We feel that we want to do , something for the school, and at the same time build up our !
! own Trojan spirit,” he ex- j I plained The contest is open to j all regular session coeds, inde- i ! pendents and living group members.
More information and entry j ; blanks may be obtained from ! Maclellan and his committee j members through the Anatomy ! office, 3 Sci. The deadline for j the return of applications has I been set for 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. j 19. .

BOSTON — Life sentences were imposed today on the eight men convicted of the $1,218,211 Brink’s holdup, the nation’s largest cash haul.
Superior Judge Felix Forte, heeding the state’s recommendation, imposed the maximum penalty on the Halloween-masked gang that looted the Brink’s Countinghouse Jan. 17. 1950.
Of the $1,218.211 stolen, only 868,000 has been recovered. It was found hidden in a beer cooler during an FBI raid on a Boston contracting firm office.

San Francisco Police
Will Slap SC Vandals
Bv David C. Henley, Daily Trojan City Editor
San Francisco’s Chief of Police told the Daily Trojan yesterday that his* men have been instructed not to hesitate to arrest and jail any SC student “who violates the peace” during the SC-Stanford football weekend Oct. 26 and 27 in his city.
Officer John Butler, speaking from orders issued by Chief Francis J. Ahern, stated that San Francisco policemen, mounted, on foot and in automobiles, will pick up and detain any Trojans, regardless of age or sex, who they feel

“We will expect the visiting students to act as if they are citizens of San Francisco,” Butler said.
“We will tolerate no vandalism or destruction of property. However, we still want everyone to have a good time up here so tell your students to be prepared to come to San Francisco to enjoy themselves but to stay out of trouble,” the policeman said.
Concerning protection for the students and visitors themselves, Butler said that teams of detec-
service men nearly rocked a tiny cable car from its carriage.
Frightened San Franciscans, tourists and the car's crew quickly emptied the small ve-•hicle as it lurched back and forth on its foundations.

Annapolis To Celebrate 100 Birthday Today; Academy, Local NROTC Programs Similar
> By Jim Bylin
Today marks the 100th birthday of the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis while SC’s Naval Reserve Officer’s Training Corps unit enters its 16th year.
According to the unit’s executive officer, Commander Donald S. Chav, many misconceptions exist about the relative strength of a NROTC commission and the academy commission.
Same Commissions
“The two commissions are absolutely the same, and the academy man does not carry any weight over our man of the same rank,” he said.
The reason why most of the admirals today are academy men is “elementary,” the commander pointed out. The NROTC program was established in 1926 at six universities while most of today’s ranking officers are World War I veterans. It will be another ten years before nonacademy men appear in the Admiralty.
There are two types of NROTC students in the units of the 52 universities across the country: the regular and the contract.
Selected by Competition
The regular is subsidized by rhe Navy and is selected by competition on a national basis. Upon graduation, he receives a commission as Ensign in the regular Navy and, currently, must serve three years active duty.
A contract student, on the other hand, graduates with a commission as Ensign in the Navy Reserve and must serve two years on active duty.
Both take the same courses of study, with the summer cruises; first for two months to Europe as a “seaman,” the second summer to Corpus Christi, Tex., for one month on aviation indoctrination and to Little Creek, Va., for four weeks in amphibious work w'ith the Marines, and the third summer once again to Europe, this time as an "officer” under observa- I tion.
The contractee takes one sum-mer cruise, between his junior j and senior year, usually to the j Caribbean.

FUTURE NAVY OFFICERS—The NTROTC Color Guard pictured.above represent the 300 men students enrolled in the Navy program on carrtpus. For 16 years, SC, in conjunction with the Navy, has been training men to become officers and add to the officer output from the Naval Academy at Annapolis. The training given at SC is similar to that received at Annapolis.
Commander Chay explained I The freshmen curriculum, that all students take three j taught by Lt. Commander Dan units of Naval Science each j Downs, consists of Naval his-semester for a total of 24 units, j tory and theory plus a general In addition to three lecture orientation of Navy procedures, hours each w’eek, there is one Sophomores, under Lt. John hour of lab and one of drill. , Kearney, take up naval ordin-
ance and fire control, basic gun control and the physics and math of ballistics during the first semester. They follow this with naval weapons, electronics, and control systems, which takes in gun directors and how such equipment as radar, sonar and loran function. They also work with guided missiles, mine warfare. torpedoes, aircraft ordinance and amphibious warfare.
Naval engineering, principals of buoyancy and stability of ships, and navigation, both by the stars (celestial) and electronically (radar and loran), are taken up by the juniors with Lt. Will Lassiter as instructor.
Seniors study ship maneuvering. Naval operations, fleet maneuvers, communications, meteorology, and Naval administration. Lt. Harry Irvine is their instructor.
Those wishing to enter the Marine Corps apply at the end of the sophomore year, and if accepted, follow a course the last two years adapted more toward land warfare under Lt. Col. Arthur Adams.
SC Graduate
Commanding officer of Troy's NROTC unit is Capt. Hart D. 'Hilton. Capt. Hilton graduated from SC in 1936 with a BS in engineering. He attended the Aviation Cadet program at Pensacola. Fla., receiving his commission and Navy Wings in 1937.
Upon receiving a commission, the new ensign is either assigned to a ship or enters a technical school for further training. Last year seven, including former ASSC President Jerry Mae-Mahon, entered the 18-month aviation training program in Florida.
Similar Studies
In comparison with Academy men. the course carried in NROTC covers the same area as Annapolis but not in such detail. At the Academy, everyone takes the same course, stressing mathematics, chemistry and physics and receives a BS degree.
Students in the program at SC are free to major in anything except medicine, dentist v. religion, art, music and pharmacy.

Annapolis To Celebrate 100 Birthday Today; Academy, Local NROTC Programs Similar
> By Jim Bylin
Today marks the 100th birthday of the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis while SC’s Naval Reserve Officer’s Training Corps unit enters its 16th year.
According to the unit’s executive officer, Commander Donald S. Chav, many misconceptions exist about the relative strength of a NROTC commission and the academy commission.
Same Commissions
“The two commissions are absolutely the same, and the academy man does not carry any weight over our man of the same rank,” he said.
The reason why most of the admirals today are academy men is “elementary,” the commander pointed out. The NROTC program was established in 1926 at six universities while most of today’s ranking officers are World War I veterans. It will be another ten years before nonacademy men appear in the Admiralty.
There are two types of NROTC students in the units of the 52 universities across the country: the regular and the contract.
Selected by Competition
The regular is subsidized by rhe Navy and is selected by competition on a national basis. Upon graduation, he receives a commission as Ensign in the regular Navy and, currently, must serve three years active duty.
A contract student, on the other hand, graduates with a commission as Ensign in the Navy Reserve and must serve two years on active duty.
Both take the same courses of study, with the summer cruises; first for two months to Europe as a “seaman,” the second summer to Corpus Christi, Tex., for one month on aviation indoctrination and to Little Creek, Va., for four weeks in amphibious work w'ith the Marines, and the third summer once again to Europe, this time as an "officer” under observa- I tion.
The contractee takes one sum-mer cruise, between his junior j and senior year, usually to the j Caribbean.

FUTURE NAVY OFFICERS—The NTROTC Color Guard pictured.above represent the 300 men students enrolled in the Navy program on carrtpus. For 16 years, SC, in conjunction with the Navy, has been training men to become officers and add to the officer output from the Naval Academy at Annapolis. The training given at SC is similar to that received at Annapolis.
Commander Chay explained I The freshmen curriculum, that all students take three j taught by Lt. Commander Dan units of Naval Science each j Downs, consists of Naval his-semester for a total of 24 units, j tory and theory plus a general In addition to three lecture orientation of Navy procedures, hours each w’eek, there is one Sophomores, under Lt. John hour of lab and one of drill. , Kearney, take up naval ordin-
ance and fire control, basic gun control and the physics and math of ballistics during the first semester. They follow this with naval weapons, electronics, and control systems, which takes in gun directors and how such equipment as radar, sonar and loran function. They also work with guided missiles, mine warfare. torpedoes, aircraft ordinance and amphibious warfare.
Naval engineering, principals of buoyancy and stability of ships, and navigation, both by the stars (celestial) and electronically (radar and loran), are taken up by the juniors with Lt. Will Lassiter as instructor.
Seniors study ship maneuvering. Naval operations, fleet maneuvers, communications, meteorology, and Naval administration. Lt. Harry Irvine is their instructor.
Those wishing to enter the Marine Corps apply at the end of the sophomore year, and if accepted, follow a course the last two years adapted more toward land warfare under Lt. Col. Arthur Adams.
SC Graduate
Commanding officer of Troy's NROTC unit is Capt. Hart D. 'Hilton. Capt. Hilton graduated from SC in 1936 with a BS in engineering. He attended the Aviation Cadet program at Pensacola. Fla., receiving his commission and Navy Wings in 1937.
Upon receiving a commission, the new ensign is either assigned to a ship or enters a technical school for further training. Last year seven, including former ASSC President Jerry Mae-Mahon, entered the 18-month aviation training program in Florida.
Similar Studies
In comparison with Academy men. the course carried in NROTC covers the same area as Annapolis but not in such detail. At the Academy, everyone takes the same course, stressing mathematics, chemistry and physics and receives a BS degree.
Students in the program at SC are free to major in anything except medicine, dentist v. religion, art, music and pharmacy.
